Pucker Up for Spring!

The Cherry Red Lip has had it’s time in the spotlight long enough.  Move over, bitch! And make some room for FUCHSIA!

Not only is it the hardest word to spell, but it is also the biggest makeup trend for Spring & Summer.  Fuchsia is young, flirty, and fun.  To avoid an 80’s disaster, skip the blue shadow and big bangs and go simple with the rest of your look.  Fuchsia lips look great when paired with pale shadow and crisp black liquid liner. 

Take some cues from these fabulous ladies... 

Celebrity Walk of Shame: Captured!

It’s not too often that we see celebrities doing the Walk of Shame, which is surprising considering the paparazzi they have chasing them.  I guess in that sense an ordinary person doing the Walk of Shame is much more of a feat to capture, like an elusive animal in the wild.  Celebrity Walks of Shame are a bit like pictures of lions at the zoo.   But the number of pictures especially in conjunction with the “before” picture make this walk thoroughly entertaining.  Click to see which star was caught!

"I have a good brain, but I’ve never really used it when it came to making decisions about love, which has been a blessing and a curse." -Sienna Miller

I love this Sienna Miller quote.  I don’t know if I love Sienna Miller.  I think I might be starting to.  Up until recently I have had a kind of love/hate relationship with her, but her fashion sense is winning me over.  I don’t know much about her, but I feel a kinship.  And I I am the f**cking poster girl for this quote. 

I have had pretty ridiculous breakup timing the past couple years.  Two pretty shitty breakups happening right before Valentine's Day which is followed two weeks later by my birthday.  Not that fun.  Especially considering that I am a planner, and I am too nice to boys I like, and I like crafts.  So, of course, both boys had wonderful handmade, heartfelt gifts that I obviously spent too much time on because they both dumped me before V-Day.  Eff that. 

I wrote this last year and I guess it's a little melodramatic as I am looking back, but it was very real to me then.  Some things I wrote still ring true to me, mostly the stuff about decisions and choices, and maybe for you as well.  Enjoy (:
